In collaboration with Google, Samsung has officially introduced its latest innovation, the Galaxy Watch for Kids experience on the Galaxy Watch 7 LTE, powered by Wear OS, offering a host of exciting features and improved design.

The Samsung Galaxy Watch for Kids features Google Family Link, allowing kids to enjoy calls and texts with their family and other approved contacts as well as enjoy teacher-approved apps and watch faces from popular brands right from their wrist without the need for a phone.

It has a wide range of features, making it an attractive option for parent-controlled kids. One of the most impressive features of the Galaxy Watch for kids is that parents can manage the watch via Google Family Link, which allows them to set necessary safety measures and personalize their child’s watch experience – giving parents peace of mind.

This is similar to the Samsung Kids mode on Galaxy phones and tablets, which turns your Galaxy Watch 7 LTE into a child-friendly zone, providing education and entertainment while keeping your kids safe.

With the Family Link app, parents can easily manage watch settings, stay connected, and see where their kids are, keeping the whole family connected. You can set the following things:

Stay in touch: Determine who your kids can call and message from their watch.
Manage Google Play apps: It allows you to Approve or block the apps your child can download on their watch. Plus, you can also block an app after it’s installed.b
View Location on Map: You can view the watch location on the map to see the location of your kids.
Reduce distractions during school time: You can add boundary functionality during school time to help children focus during class. Additionally, you can manage their schedule and add breaks in the Family Link app.
Find lost devices: Quickly find lost watches in your Family Link app.

In addition, the two companies have partnered with the popular kids’ brand to bring 20 new teacher-approved apps and watch faces to the Kids section of Google Play. These apps highlight a range of topics — like math, science, history, music, creativity, emotional health, and physical activity — in fun, engaging ways:

Availability

Galaxy Watch for Kids becomes available in the U.S. today, January 22, on the Galaxy Watch 7 LTE model from Samsung.com and on Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T nationwide.
